When it comes to the draw, I have a feeling that Stosur wouldn't be a bad one (feel free to call me crazy). Her start of the year was less than impressive, and it looks like her confidence is somewhere else. She is also no stranger to early losses in Melbourne as she suffered one a year ago to Cirstea. A televised court would be an added bonus Donna would "just" have to neutralize the drop shot and handle a few other minor details...

Of the seeds, I think Paszek has been pretty vulnerable lately and also wouldn't be a bad draw.
